FIRST-PERSON: When you're no longer 'in love' with God

FORT WORTH, Texas (SWBTS) – Just as time wears on romantic feelings in marriage or dating relationships, even so it can erode a Christian’s “spiritual high.” So how should Christians react when the “sizzle has fizzled” and they no longer feel “in love” with God?

Diane Montgomery, a recent graduate from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, addressed this question in a first-person essay on Baptist Press. Her essay first appeared on UnlockingFemininity.com, a website started by three Southwesterners trying “to set the truth of Christ before women and girls in ways that connect with the female heart.”
